HOW DID YOU ENGAGE WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY WHILE ABROAD?
I took the train around town every day, and interacted with waiters and cashiers. I also had some locals help me buy train tickets or give me directions. At the beach I met so many foreigners from all over the world, and they all seemed eager to tell me their life story so that was a cool way to expose myself to different cultures. I also attended parades and festivals and went to clubs, where I cheered and danced alongside natives.
WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CLASS WHILE ABROAD, AND WHY?
I took a Spanish class that was so much fun because our teacher was the coolest, most patient lady. We made friends with a British boy in that class, and went out with him and his friends a couple times. We also met a bunch of Indian doctors, and a Ukrainian doctor with three kids who was working as a maid in Spain. There were only 10 of us in the class so we became pretty close.
